I have a Google #.

I always give it to those whom I dont want to give my ‘main’ number. Businesses that I suspect will sell my number.

When a call comes in, it gets forwarded to whatever number I want it forwarded to. If I dont answer, it goes to voicemail and then I get a text (voice recognition) with the message.

It is a great screening tool.

So if I get repeated calls from a certain number, I can block it.

And if someone is calling from an unlisted number, you can have Google Voice block the call, or request the caller give their name first. Very quick method of getting off of call lists, as they will treat it as a disconnected number.
